The Libertarian Party’s website lists seven Libertarians holding elected office in Indiana — all in local or county-level positions There are more than 300 in elected office nationally.  Horning's background has not a lot to do with politics He has a clinical background and works part-time in cardio diagnostic testing “If you know you're going to be an underdog you must be doing it for some kind of reason,” Horning said His reason was being on “the wrong side of government.”  Horning and his wife lived in Indianapolis in the 1990s in a neighborhood with what he described as having rich people along with very poor people He said he watched rich residents use governmental leverage to help evict poor people and micromanage the community.  “I was watching how they were repairing sidewalks up in places where these people were very wealthy,” he said “But they were not repairing sidewalks where we really needed them very badly.”  carry what he described as some of the ugliest aspects of politics Horning now lives in the countryside in the unincorporated community of Freedom Horning ran to represent Indiana’s 7th congressional district as a Republican in 2004 but lost by a 10% margin to incumbent Democrat Julia Carson that he would have won “if only living people were counted.” The district has voted reliably Democratic since 2002.   Horning would have large influence over national policy he believes many of those powers should be left up to the states.  which he is personally against but believes should remain as state policy His policies also require a shrinking of the federal government notably over regulation of the economy.  His issues with politics aren’t only hyperlocal or state-focused — he is running to represent Indiana’s interests in America’s national and international affairs And he’s not happy with the government’s present state.  “It’s corrupt and they’re doing terrible things worldwide,” he said.   discontinuing military funding abroad to instead spend money on domestic issues He said he’s concerned that the United States’ current dominant role in the world But his harshest criticisms are largely over monetary policy government taking its currency off the gold standard in the 1970s which had previously tied the dollar to the value of gold Horning will face an uphill battle by not running under the two main parties though Libertarians saw success in the 2020 gubernatorial election.  “It's frustrating that people think that elections are about parties and candidates,” Horning said And voters are the ones who were stuck on the two-party system that our founders warned us against.” The Daily Rundown is published Monday through Friday and gives you a quick look at the day's top stories Friday's weekly recap will let you catch up on the most important and most popular stories of the week Find out what the IDS is saying about IU basketball distributed during the IU basketball season Anderson Stevenson Wilke & Retz Funeral Home Assisting the Montana communities of Helena Services are pending at this time or no services will be held Please visit the floral shop page for assistance in choosing a local florist No photos have been submitted yet.

Seniors Andrew Barfield and Landen Horning and sophomore Zander App will all represent Memorial at Saturday's IHSAA semistate at Ford Center Everyone has unfinished business to take care of App is in his second year of wrestling with the Tigers and finished third at the Castle regionals in the 285-pound class and Hoar were semistate qualifiers last winter but fell short of a return trip to Ford Center — Horning and Hoar saw their seasons end in the ticket round "It definitely did motivate me," Horning said regarding his ticket round loss and I just wanted to come back next season and use that just use that match as fuel to power through and make it to state this year." One of the biggest things Happe teaches his grapplers is constant wrestling and "wrestling like water." He also stresses the importance of being mentally prepared for matches to his wrestlers Horning is growing technically and mentally in his final season and is learning more on what to do in certain positions He has compiled a 105-19 record at Memorial and is among the Southern Indiana Athletic Conference's best wrestlers Barfield finished third at the sectional and regional meets in the 150-pound class; his confidence has grown each year with the Tigers and just moved on to lacrosse season," Barfield said That's when I kind of realized I can definitely go somewhere and try to do something special in this sport." Memorial's junior class is another main focal point of the team The Cirignano triplets add to the family dynamic with Luca and Matteo grappling and Mia managing Happe commended Hoar for leading the way with his offseason work including competing for freestyle and greco state titles and representing Team Indiana at National Duals "They've been leaders in the room as well," Happe said and sometimes they convince the seniors to work a little harder The team concept to them has been awesome." Horning added: "I think everybody is just coming in here to get better I think it's going to be a good season for them next year." Happe and his wrestlers agree they're in one of the state's toughest semistates Barfield particularly drew Brownsburg's three-time state champion Jake Hockaday for the first round of last season's semistate and lost to the future Nebraska grappler with a tech fall Memorial's goal remains to compete at the highest level now playing football at the University of Texas El Paso represented the Tigers as an IHSAA runner-up in 2023 All of the semistate grapplers would love nothing more than to also represent their school at Gainbridge Fieldhouse has been a dream for a long time," Barfield said that's what I want more than anything in the world is to be able to do it for at least one more week."

Follow her on Twitter/X @CarloniBrittany Get 4 Weeks of Farm and Dairy Home DeliveredSign Up for your FREE Trial Ohio — Andrew Horning knows how to give people what they want But he also likes to educate their dessert palate giving them adventure when he knows his customers will enjoy something a bit different Whether it’s his recent offerings of sweet corn ice cream a vegan phyllo cake with orange and cinnamon syrup or a choix (pronounced “shoe”) bun filled with mascarpone and blueberry cream Horning is always looking to excite the customers and give some allegiance to his own delectable creations This 33-year-old pastry and dessert cook at Bell Tower Brewing Company & Kitchen in Kent had no idea that life would hand him this type of road map but he’s overjoyed about where he has landed Bell Tower Brewing co-founder and general manager Ryan Tipton is thrilled with how things have developed “We are a scratch kitchen and Andrew’s skills and abilities in dessert creation pair perfectly with keeping us accountable to our own high-quality standards,” Tipton said “Andrew’s dessert offerings surprise a lot of people when they come visit us for the first time because of how creative and flavorful they are.” Tipton knows he can count on Horning to maintain that quality giving customers something to constantly look forward to “Layering in seasonal fruits and farm-fresh products really ups the ante when it comes to exceeding our customer’s expectations and keeps them coming back for more,” he said Horning started working with his father in apartment and property maintenance he solely took care of a building that had 127 units at full occupancy And while he was always glad to make sure that 127 different families had what they needed there were other paths that seemed to be calling him “I played football for five years for Kent State,” he said I always thought that just perhaps I could turn pro Horning finally felt the pull into restaurant work starting as a dishwasher at Treno Ristorante in the former Kent Pufferbelly Restaurant “Then I moved up to doing salads because I developed an affinity for the kitchen,” he smiled “The head chef there taught me quite a bit and I eventually fell into the role of dessert making,” he said the pandemic decided to wreak havoc on the restaurant industry Horning worked with and learned from a few bakers in the city Horning pursued an online Chicago School of Pastry certification He honed the skills necessary to learn the proper techniques of the intricacies of baking He pored over thousands of books and learned the best kinds of foods to pair with one another “My parents always gave me a worldly view to never be close-minded but also to look for the answers,” he said His mother was always 100% behind his career path but because Horning describes him as a “finance” guy and always looking on the practical side he knew the risks of the restaurant industry His father often asked Andrew if he was sure this was what he wanted to pursue another turn in the roadmap was about to occur and with Horning’s family so nearby in Stow they decided to return to the university-based small town atmosphere I applied again to be a dishwasher here at the Bell Tower,” he said “But they took a look at my resume and who I had been working with and put me on as the person to build out the dessert program.” He has now been with Bell Tower for a year delighting customers with unique culinary expressions “The Columbus food culture is very different than Kent’s,” he said “You can get away with a bit more ‘fringe’ desserts in Columbus,” he said citing as an example that a friend of his has specially created a “bone marrow creme brulee.” Horning said he isn’t quite sure that would fly in Kent “My customers here like comfort and simplicity,” he said “But I give them that in surprising ways.” He’s grateful for the locally-grown items available from area farmers “We are at the Farmer’s Market here in Kent every weekend and I will be living at Kent’s Beckwith’s Orchards now that autumn is to arrive so soon,” he said citing Beckwith’s apples and peaches especially He added that the brewery portion of the restaurant uses locally sourced barley and malt Horning added that sweet corn is definitely used as a part of the ice cream that was offered as a recent dessert choice She had been intrigued by recipes she found for sweet corn and she knows that during the peak of the season “We use sweet corn that we roast with seasonings of salt pepper and paprika to really bring out the natural flavors of the corn and balance out the sweetness We also use a bit of butter and vanilla extract to bring it all together,” Skula said has her own take on Andrew’s form of genius “Andrew brings an elevated awareness to understanding not only how powerful the presentation of a dessert can be but also has the knack for playing off seasonality just seem to work better in particular seasons,” Hermann said “Andrew and I frequently taste ingredients together and we are always excited when a dessert paired with a beer hits all the right notes with that ‘Wow!’ factor.” Horning offers up a menu change so that customers can look forward to trying new things we will have the apple-pecan bourbon ice cream and the vegan semolina cake with apples.” Horning’s desserts can be purchased

When his electronic devices were seized in December 2021, authorities found 663 images and 14 videos depicting child pornography, along with additional child sex abuse material. Among the disturbing content, 38 images and one video involved infants or toddlers, and one video depicted sadomasochism. The case was announced by Acting U.S. Attorney Zachary T. Lee and Stanley M. Meador, Special Agent in Charge of the FBI’s Richmond Division. The investigation was conducted by the Federal Bureau of Investigation, and Assistant U.S. Attorney Jason Scheff prosecuted the case.
